Last august our flag pole in front of the house was struck by lightning. It was burned. Blew all our pool equipment, landscape lights, clothes dryer, pool alarm, and a few gfi outlets. A few another things. We were very lucky. We had pavers around the base of the flag pole and some of them landed on neighbors roof. We were happy to have it hit the pole instead of the house. Pole is very close to front bedroom.
